H1B Extension minimum days before H1B expiry required

[Devdutt]

Hello Everyone,

I have valid H1B till December 2017. I never traveled to USA due to personal problem,

Since H1B expiry date coming soon, please let me know how days prior H1B extension needs to apply by the employer ?

Moreover, present employer not showing interest for extension. Will it be possible to transfer to new employer before December 2017 ?

Regards

Devdutt B

Your employer can file for extension as last as 2 weeks from validity end date.

Yes, if you find a new job, your new employer can file H1b before Dec 2017.

Also, you may now utilize the Premium Processing option for getting any of the above processed.
